Valencia Airport Transfers (VLC): Private Taxi





Valencia-Manises Airport · VLC

Valencia Airport transfers: a private car service with your driver waiting in arrivals

A car with driver from the Valencia-Manises Airport (VLC) arrivals hall to your hotel, the station or anywhere in the Valencian Community. To the city centre, Joaquín Sorolla station, the Estació del Nord or the cruise port: about 10 km, 15–25 minutes and from €39 per vehicle, not per person. Tolls, fuel, VAT, flight tracking and 60 minutes of waiting from landing are included.

How do I get from Valencia Airport to the city centre?

Book a private transfer: Zonetransfers follows your flight and a chauffeur stands at VLC arrivals with your name, then drives non-stop to the hotel, flat or station you booked. Manises lies 8–10 km west of Valencia; via the V-11 and A-3 it is 15–25 minutes, and up to four people share one €39 fare.

Because Valencia fares are per car, four friends split €39 while a lone traveller pays the same. It suits midnight landings, families with buggies, heavy luggage and Ciutat Vella hotels, where only some streets admit cars.

Joaquín Sorolla or Estació del Nord: Valencia Airport to your train

Valencia has two central railway stations about 800 m apart. From the airport to either one is about 10 km, 10–20 minutes and from €39 per vehicle, and the driver drops you at the right building.

Valencia railway stations from the airport
Station Trains Good to know
Joaquín Sorolla High-speed services (AVE and other fast trains to Madrid and beyond) A separate building south of the centre: check your ticket before you book.
Estació del Nord Local, regional and medium-distance trains The historic modernista station next to the bullring and Plaza del Ayuntamiento.
  • Check which station your train leaves from: they are different buildings, a 10–15 minute walk apart.
  • Leave margin: between landing, baggage reclaim and the drive, allow at least 1 h 15 min before departure.
  • Add your train time and flight number to the booking so the service follows your real arrival.

Neighbourhoods: where the car can stop

"Valencia centre" is not enough of an address: always give the hotel and street. These are the districts we drive to most:

Valencia neighbourhoods by car
Neighbourhood Where the car stops
Ciutat Vella (Carmen, Mercat, Cathedral) Narrow streets with restricted vehicle access. We stop at the nearest permitted point and show you the short walk.
Ruzafa and the Ensanche Avenues with direct car access to most hotels.
City of Arts and Sciences Modern area beside the old Turia riverbed, with business hotels and easy access.
Malvarrosa and Las Arenas beaches Seafront and beach hotels, about 25–30 minutes from the airport.
Campanar and Feria Valencia The north side and the trade fair grounds, very close to the airport: ideal for congresses.

Fallas, 15–19 March

During Fallas many streets in the centre and Ruzafa close for the monuments, the mascletàs and the parades. Your drop-off may be at the nearest open point, and it pays to book early: these are the busiest days of the year at the airport.

Four hotels and how cars reach them

Four reference hotels in different parts of the city and what to know when you arrive:

Valencia hotels and car access
Hotel Address On arrival
SH Inglés Boutique Calle Marqués de Dos Aguas, 6, Ciutat Vella An 18th-century palace on the same street as the National Ceramics Museum. Restricted-access zone: the car stops at the nearest permitted point.
Caro Hotel Calle Almirante, 14, Ciutat Vella 26-room hotel in the old town; narrow street, so the last stretch may be on foot.
SH Valencia Palace Paseo de la Alameda, 32 239-room hotel by the old Turia riverbed; direct car access.
Hotel Las Arenas Balneario Resort Calle Eugenia Viñes, 22-24 Facing Las Arenas beach in the maritime district; arrival right at the door.

Meeting point at Valencia-Manises

Valencia-Manises has one terminal building with arrivals on the ground floor. After baggage reclaim, and passport control on flights from outside Schengen, you come out into the arrivals hall, where the Zonetransfers chauffeur stands holding your name card; your voucher marks the exact spot.

  • Lots of VLC arrivals are from the UK and outside Schengen. Expect the border check first; since the EES started, non-EU travellers have fingerprints and a photo taken on first entry. The hour of free waiting still runs from touchdown.
  • Road access is via the A-3 and the V-11, next to Manises.
  • Traffic in and out of Valencia peaks early morning and late afternoon on weekdays.
  • If you cannot see your driver, call the 24-hour number on your voucher and the coordinator will locate them.

OUR CUSTOMER OPINION

I had a 5:30 AM pickup for the airport in Alicante. The driver arrived 10 minutes early, sent a polite text to let me know he was waiting outside, and handled everything with absolute professionalism.

We used Zonetransfers for airport transfers back and forth during a family trip to Madrid. On-time pickups, comfortable vehicles, and very friendly drivers. Will definitely use them again.

We needed to get from Valencia to Barcelona with quite a few bags, so we decided to book a private transfer. The driver arrived on time, helped us with the luggage and we went straight to our hotel in Barcelona. It worked really well for us.
(08/14/2026) Sophie Turner
We booked a transfer from Lisbon Airport to Faro as we were staying in the Algarve for a few days. It was a long drive but the car was comfortable and the driver was friendly. We just sat back and enjoyed the trip instead of worrying about trains and changing buses.
